Sometimes what starts as a beautiful friendship or productive partnership turns toxic, or one-sided, or unhealthy-and the best solution for both parties is to end it.

Drawing from her own experiences, Jamye provides strategies for disengaging from a friend, family member, community, or even former version of oneself, addressing both practical and emotional concerns. While ending a relationship can be painful, Jamye’s positive message focuses on the ultimately liberating aspects of putting unhealthy relationships to rest.

      Starred review from September 15, 2015

      A multitude of books exist on romantic breakups, yet few discuss how to disengage from a friend, family member, or even a former version of oneself. Waxman (Getting Off) fills that void by putting forth seven steps to dissolving a union, starting with deciding to do it and ending with feeling the burn and repeating a mantra. Using concrete examples, she emphasizes that it can be a gift to everyone to walk away from a situation that isn't serving anyone well. A section of advice for those who have been broken up with includes warnings to back off, take care of oneself, and refuse to be a doormat. VERDICT Sound guidance for those involved in toxic relationships and looking for a way out.
